Michael Moore Slimes Weasely Clark
Idiotarian of the Year runner-up Michael Moore introduced Wesley Clark today in his inimitable way, showing why he came so close to grabbing the 2003 Fiskie: Clark Hints at Bush’s Military Service. Moore manifestly represents the looniest of the loony left, unscrupulous and unserious; it’s a real tragedy to see the Democratic Party degenerate so far that candidates for the presidency are pleased by the endorsement of this buffoon.
PEMBROKE, N.H. - Wesley Clark suggested Saturday that questions remain about President Bush’s Vietnam-era service in the Texas Air National Guard, but the retired general stopped short of endorsing a comment by actor-director Michael Moore that Bush was “a deserter.”Moore, a Clark supporter, introduced the Democratic presidential nominee at a campaign rally here by saying he looked forward to debates between Clark, if he wins the Democratic nomination, and Bush.
“I want to see that debate: the general versus the deserter,” Moore said to enthusiastic applause at a packed rally in a high-school gymnasium, reiterating a line he uses frequently.
Clark, asked later by reporters if he agreed with Moore’s characterization of Bush as a “deserter,” said: “I’ve heard those charges. I don’t know whether they’re established or not. He was never prosecuted for it. The question in this election is can we bring a higher standard of leadership to America.”
